Shaq is Graduating From Barry University, So Now You Can Call Him Dr. Shaq

During commencement ceremonies at Miami’s James L. Knight Center, he’ll be anointed Dr. O’Neal by Barry University, receiving a doctoral degree in organizational learning and leadership with a specialization in human resource development. Sounds like a mouthful? Not for a guy with a grade-point average of 3.813 over 4 1/2 years at Barry.

He wrote a dissertation. Oh, and Shaq’s not done. “Law school or a doctorate in psychology might be next,” he told the Palm Beach Post. I’m expecting a huge bounce-back year in 2012 from Shaq on Inside the NBA. [Palm Beach Post]
